In 1979 a Tourism Association for Llanwrtyd Wells was started. The objective of this Association was to improve the economy by marketing events of the Town.

One of the objectives was to organise a new event each year, especially during the tourism' off-season'.
The first event organised was the Man Versus Horse Marathon in 1980. This was followed by The Welsh International Four Day Walks in 1981, and the Drovers Walk in 1982. Now a total of 12 events are organised annually.

In 2001 it was decided that these events should be organised by a Company, and Green Events Limited was incorporated.

Aims and Objectives of Green Events Ltd:-

To promote the unique events which Llanwrtyd Wells have to offer to a global audience, throughout the year - any season - day or night
To give all of our visitors the fun, satisfaction and pleasure in everything we do
To bring back our visitors time and time again
